Don't be silly. I'm sure you're over-reacting. He'll probably even kindly have you over for tea.

TIL it's childish to bring up things Putin is known to do to people he's displeased with.

Are you seriously trying to defend Putin's known past actions?
Oh boy, here we go...

Every vote counts in some way.

Down ticket or up. Even local measures are affected.

Keep Voting People!

Am I the only one that sees the subtle racism in thanking a black person for voting a certain way?

"Thank you black voters" What...? Lol. Why not something like "Good job, Alabama!" "Way to go, Democrats!" "We did it!"

Nope. Thank you for the color of your skin. Thank you for being a dependent voting bloc for us even though we never do shit for you. We will go back to ignoring you and your issues now. I mean what the fuck?
